LaunchCRO matches you with a verified, reference-checked CRO-level executive who has already helped build what you're building — full revenue leadership across sales, GTM, marketing, partnerships, and customer growth. Not just fractional sales help.
5-minute AI-guided intake · 3 verified matches, typically within 48 hours · capability-first matching
You started this company because you believed you could build something extraordinary.
The founders who get there don't get every decision right. But they consistently make one decision exceptionally well: they bring exceptional leadership into the company earlier than everyone else. Because they understand a simple truth:
The earlier you leverage exceptional revenue leadership, the greater its opportunity to influence your future — and the greater the return on that investment.
That's where LaunchCRO comes in. Built exclusively for founders in crypto, payments, AI, and fintech, LaunchCRO connects you with proven fractional Chief Revenue Officers who have already helped build companies like the one you're building. You gain decades of experience precisely when it can have the greatest impact — better strategic decisions, a stronger commercial engine, and years of expensive hiring mistakes avoided, without adding a full-time executive before your business needs one.

It's leverage.
A confidential marketplace by design: you evaluate anonymous, verified capability profiles — identities are exchanged only after you choose who to meet. No directory to dig through. No unvetted résumés.
A 5-minute guided intake captures your stage, industry, growth objective, and the exact revenue capability you need — in your language, not recruiter-speak.
Typically within 48 hours you receive 3 anonymous profiles of reference-verified executives whose experience maps to your specific need. No names until you choose — outcomes first.
Meet your pick, agree scope and hours, and start. When you select your executive, all parties sign a simple engagement agreement before work begins. A flat engagement fee covers the search; from there, a platform fee — a percentage of the retainer, paid by the company, never by your executive — keeps LaunchCRO working alongside you for as long as the engagement runs.
Matched to your stage, not just your title. Scaling a company from $2M to $20M is a different job than $50M to $200M. We match on the transition you're actually in.
Four industries only. Every executive is native to crypto, payments, AI, or fintech. Your CRO already speaks your market — no ramp-up on how your industry works.
References checked before you ever see a profile. A name from a network is an opinion. Every LaunchCRO executive is independently verified before they reach you.
The executive pays us nothing. They keep 100% of what they negotiate — LaunchCRO is funded entirely by the company side — so the strongest operators actually want to be here, and our only incentive is to place them well, not to list them.
Full-scope revenue leadership, matched to the capability you need most right now.
Transition off the founder's calendar into a repeatable, scalable sales motion.
Recruit, structure, and ramp the first real sales hires — without the mis-hires.
ICP, positioning, pricing, and entry into new segments or geographies.
Strategic, channel, and banking partnerships that open doors sales alone can't.
Demand gen, product marketing, and ABM connected directly to revenue.
Customer success, account management, retention, and expansion discipline.
Metrics, forecasting, and board-grade reporting for your next raise.
One executive owner for the entire revenue engine, part-time, at your stage.
Every LaunchCRO executive is matched within their native market. Your CRO already speaks your industry.

Not sure? The intake takes 5 minutes and we'll tell you straight.
One simple, fixed fee when your search begins — a fraction of a traditional retained search, not a six-figure recruiting engagement. Covers intake, verification review, capability matching, and your consultation. Confirmed in your matching consultation.
A percentage of the retainer, paid by the company — never deducted from your executive. It runs for as long as the engagement continues through LaunchCRO, and it's what funds your ongoing support, replacement protection, and Success Program.
Your executive keeps 100% of what they negotiate. LaunchCRO is paid by the company alongside the engagement — never out of your executive's compensation, and never a hidden markup.
A CRO who helped deliver an eight-figure exit. A founder who built and sold a company of his own.
